Since Sophia was also invited, Arthur brought her to a dress shop to pick out a gown.
After personally selecting a dress, he had his lady try it out and it fit unexpectedly well. Thanks to the pearls and diamond, it was a very flashy dress and she looked like a princess after matching it with her fair skin.
Although Sophia had not dressed so formally or even wore high heels in a long time, her figure that had been trained through dancing still stood out very much in the dress. With a well defined collarbone and shoulder lines, her fair skin and clear gaze made her look like a goddess.
Arthur, who was flipping through the magazine, could not take his eyes off her the moment he looked up.
On the other hand, Sophia pursed her lips embarrassingly as she turned away, not daring to face his passionate gaze.
“We‘ll take this dress!”
The owner then stepped up and smiled before explaining, “Sir, I‘m not sure if you are aware of this, but due to the brand of the dress, it is only available for sales and not for rental as this dress belongs to one of our exclusive collections. However, we can rent out the jewelry and heels that Miss Goodwin is currently wearing.”
“How much does the dress cost?” Sophia asked out of curiosity while having a feeling that it must fetch a pretty penny.
“This dress is a piece from the top designer, Oleh. It costs eight million.”
Suddenly, the light and airy dress immediately weighed a ton, making Sophia feel a shortness of breath. Eight million for a dress? No, thanks.
“We‘ll pay by credit card! Including the jewelry and shoes too. I don‘t like the word ‘rent‘” Arthur took out his black card.
Sophia was stunned. Wait, what? He‘s going to buy this?
“Artie, how about we discuss this for a bit before coming to a decision?” She walked over and asked gently.
Smiling, he replied, “No need for that. I like this look on you very much.”
She closed in and whispered, “Isn‘t your bank account frozen? I don‘t want you spending this much money.”
